Il Barone Ristorante in Newport Beach is a consistent five star
restaurant showing an exquisite Italian cuisine. Now another generation
of the family has opened IL Barone Pizza e Pasta, a much more casual
eatery located at 705 E. Balboa Blvd., one block from The Pavilion.
Jonathan Barone shows a carefully crafted variety of Italian favorites with seven pizzas and ten pasta dishes.
There are also house specials like calamari fritti and a Folcaccia \sandwich with tuna.
The
desserts follow the family tradition with Cannoli Siciliani and Tartufo
di Cioccolato con gelato as well as our favorite Tiramisu.
What
impressed us the most with this new enterprise was the most modest
prices. If it were not so far away from where we live Jonathan would
have a regular customer with this Writer who always loves a bargain when
he sees one.
